Let me know if you want me to send you a list from the MLS about the types of properties I am referring to or if I can help in another way. 

Can anyone point me to a good guide or advise on any major differences in this type of investing? 

@Nathan Gesner Is there a specific type of collection agency that is used for renters or any agency?

You would be best served by talking with your CPA and Qualified Intermediary.  

@Dan Bowe, I think all your answers are below, but I will note that to buy basically any type of deal today still feels pretty risky.  

It refers to having an investment property also serve as your primary residence.

This thread is more confirmation for me why I will never invest in this type of unit/building etc. no thanks, dont need it.

Search for past threads by going to the search function at the top right, selecting forums for the search, and typing in Evolve.
